Question

What are the first five terms, a1, a2, a3, a4, a5, of the sequence defined by a Subscript n = StartFraction n squared minus 9 Over n cubed + 3 EndFraction, and how can the sequence be described?

PLEASEEE HELP !!

Answer 1

C

Explanation:

Answer 2

Explanation:

So if you look at the numerator the degree is 2, and if you look at the numerator of the denominator, it's 3. This means that the value of the denominator will grow faster than the numerator, so it will diverge.

To find the first 5 terms simply plug in 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 as n

`a_1=(1^2-9)/(1^3+3) = (-8)/(4) = -2}\\a_2 = (2^2-9)/(2^3+3) = (-5)/(11) = -(5)/(11)\\a_3 = (3^2-9)/(3^3+3) = (0)/(30) = 0\\a_4 = (4^2-9)/(4^64+3) = (7)/(67) = (7)/(67)\\a_5 = (5^2-9)/(5^3+3) = (16)/(128) = (1)/(8)`

It should converge to a limit of 0, since the denominator is growing faster than the numerator
